Father can be an enemy to the country

The scorching sun hung high in the sky, and the shadow of the flagpole shrank to the point where it was almost invisible.

At the sound of the cannon, Liu Ying, who was in charge of supervising the beheading, threw down the fire sign and said loudly: It's noon, let's start the execution!

Dong dong dong, the sergeant beat the big drum, the executioner sprayed a sip of strong alcohol on the ghost head knife, and then raised the bright butcher knife high.

When Xie Yunzhang's head was roughly pressed on the chopping board by the sergeant, he fell into despair.

The glory of Chenjun Xie's family, the pride that had dominated the south of the Yangtze River for the past few decades, were all reduced to nothing at this moment. All that remains is the boundless fear of death...

Only then did he understand that he was also an ant in the face of real power. There is no difference between them and the ordinary people he can crush to death at will.

You said you were just enjoying your good life, so why are you fooling around here? What are you trying to figure out?

How can Xie Liting, who has achieved great enlightenment, be filled with regret and regret at this moment?

Behead! the supervisor shouted.

The executioners all dropped their ghost-headed knives!

I have one more thing to confess! Lu Zhonghe was killed by someone! Xie Yunzhang shouted with all his strength when he was on the line between life and death.

The ghost-headed knives fell down, blood spurted out, and heads rolled to the ground.

The knife that struck him missed by three inches and hit the chopping board hard.

Xie Yunzhang's mind went blank and he fainted from shock.

Because they had to kill everyone before three quarters noon, the officers and soldiers cleared the area non-stop and quickly escorted the second row of prisoners onto the stage.

This group of prisoners had been so frightened by the scene of heads rolling in just now that they were pissed off... in the true sense of the word.

Seeing that Xie Yunzhang was lucky enough to survive because he revealed a shocking secret at the last moment. The prisoners followed suit one after another, shouting out their most ulterior secrets in exchange for a chance to live.

As for whether they can get this opportunity, it all depends on His Highness Prince Jin under the umbrella opposite. Wherever his fingers touch, the butcher knife on his head will be emptied.

And His Highness Prince Jin, with his usual bad taste of tormenting people, would wait until their heads were pressed on the chopping board before he started to raise his hands and point.

So before the butcher knife falls, no one knows whether they will die or live in the next second. Of course, no one has escaped the terrifying experience of walking through the gates of hell.

Even if he was lucky enough to save his head, he would be so frightened that he would collapse on the spot and behave in an ugly manner...

~~

This wonderful live drama left the people of Suzhou in the audience dumbfounded.

How many times have they seen people killed? Cut in half, Ling Chi... there are many tricks, but how can they be so exciting? Not even a hair can compare to it.

In the crowd, a fat monk clasped his hands together as if he was reciting the 'Rebirth Mantra' to save the dead.

The middle-aged scholar wearing thick glasses clearly heard him whisper: It's so...exciting...

I finally understand that Zhu Hongwu does not support idle people. Luo Guanzhong also sighed: All the descendants of the old Zhu family are talents.

His Royal Highness King Jin's hand is called accompanying chop. Dao Yan already understood at this time. He didn't intend to kill those big dogs. He just wanted to destroy their reputations and scare their courage so that they would never dare to do anything again in their lives.

Well, I've heard of it... Luo Guanzhong nodded. He knew ancient times and knew that companion beheading was a very unique punishment. It is not found in any Criminal Code and does not even touch the prisoner in the slightest. However, the person being tortured will be frightened out of his wits, which is even more terrifying than killing him.

The key to this kind of punishment is to make the victim believe that he is going to be beheaded. So until he was taken to the execution ground with other prisoners, he was convinced that he was going to be beheaded. Naturally, he will completely experience the mental journey of a death row prisoner.

And in order to achieve a better shock, or torture effect, other prisoners are usually beheaded first, so that they can see the horrific scene when other people's heads fall to the ground. This person is basically scared to death.

Later, the executioner will still raise the butcher knife, and his head will be pressed on the chopping block. The mystery would not be revealed until the Ghost Head Saber fell heavily and landed next to his neck.

But at this time, 99% of the prisoners have been frightened and fainted. When they are sent back to the prison and wake up, they will find that they are not dead yet...

This kind of punishment will have a devastating psychological impact on the prisoner. Most people will realize before the death gate that they are actually greedy for life and afraid of death, and from then on they will no longer have the courage to commit crimes.

Only a few true warriors who are not afraid of death will remain unmoved and continue to go their own way.

But obviously none of those rich and powerful people are not afraid of death...

They just don't believe that the imperial court dares to kill them. Dao Yan said lightly: Prince Jin only needs to make them believe that the imperial court will crush them to death like ants. That will be enough.

His Royal Highness Prince Jin is really good at acting. Luo Guanzhong couldn't help but smile bitterly: Even me, who knows a little bit about the details, once thought that they would definitely die.

These big households are involved too much. The people of Suzhou and even Jiangnan depend on them for their livelihood, food, clothing, housing and transportation. Killing them hastily will have serious consequences. It will cause Suzhou City and even Jiangnan to fall into depression. Dao Yan Sighed:

That's why the poor monk is eager to see the two highnesses, just to persuade them to be cautious. You can achieve the same goal without killing anyone... I didn't expect that His Highness King Jin and the poor monk have the same view. It is really happy and exciting. It’s disappointing.”

What do you think? Luo Guanzhong smiled, but felt a little uneasy in his heart.

It's a good thing that all the princes of the Ming Dynasty have their own jobs. Daoyan quickly adjusted and resumed his Maitreya-like smile: The story in the future will definitely be exciting, and there will definitely be a place for the poor monks to use their talents. .”

Just wait and see. Luo Guanzhong gave the fat monk an annoyed look, but this was exactly what he was worried about just now...

I'm really leaving this time. Dao Yan waved his hand towards him and squeezed out of the crowd.

Aren't you going to watch the next show? Luo Guanzhong turned around and asked.

The big dogs are scared out of their wits, what else can we watch? Daoyan shook his head, not interested in the one-sided plot.

~~

In the end, of the more than two hundred prisoners, half had their heads chopped off, and half were frightened out of their wits...

The prison officer escorted the prisoners who had saved their lives back to the military camp, and the people watching the excitement dispersed one after another.

Under the umbrella of the high platform, His Royal Highness the King of Chu looked at the scene of rivers of blood on the execution platform and couldn't help but sigh inappropriately.

In the end, most of the people who died were gangsters, and very few big businessmen were beheaded.

‘Human life is really divided into high and low. ’ He couldn’t help but feel a little sad. But then he thought that his life was more valuable than most people, and he became happy again.

Li Heng on the side also said sincerely: Your Highness is really good at it.

It's just so so. His Highness Prince Jin said with a proud smile: They acted it out for us first. I, the king, am just following their example.

If the eldest brother hadn't told me to kill less people, I wouldn't have bothered with these things. The third child snorted again, and said with some unfinished meaning: Fortunately, the effect is about the same.

That's because those big dogs will probably never dare to go against the imperial court again in this life. Lao Liu nodded and smiled.

Of course, King Jin sneered, Isn't it good to live?
